Will I die of cancer or some other sickness, disease, or medical disorder? Will I get hit by a car and die of "complications?" Will I die in an airplane accident, or meet my end in some other tragic manner?
How many of you have asked these questions? What if you could eliminate the "get sick and die" option from consideration?
I'm asking: "Could we possibly have reached a point in our evolution where medicine, technology, education, and common sense have all come together to end illness?"
This is certainly a question worth pondering so I just picked up the book: The End of Illness, by David B. Agus, MD because I want to know!
Check out this clip from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart:
Thanks Dr. David Agus for writing this book!
Now all of you bloggers sitting behind your computer for hours at a time....
"Get UP And MOve!"
Here's wishing everyone happiness, health, and an end to your illness!

Right, now I've done a marathon I feel I can comment...
Bah - it's too complicated a subject:)
How ya keepin' Big Guy? :))
Jane, that's Impressive.... Keeping well here. Like a fine wine! :) How are you? Writing away I see.
I was joking about the marathon! Seriously, can you imagine me with skinny legs and a gaunt face? I'm much more a hiking boots and stomping over the fields type with red cheeks and a packet of wine gums in my pocket:)
Fine wines are most pleasing:) Don't drink too much though - a bulbous red nose and spider veins would seriously damage my image of you:))
Blogging aside, writing is going very well. It's a craft; I've been learning it and now I feel I'm heading into the home straight:)
Just saw this guy on Morning Joe. So if I had kept up with you, I would have found it MUCH sooner. Shame on me. Should've known.
Micki.. Great to see you. Yeah, occasionally I get a good post in. :)
Hey, how are you keeping, Mr I? How goes it in the land of Milk and Honey? I hope all is well with you:)
